Answer:
1. x^4 -x^3 -4x^2 -3
a1 = -7.4
an = an-1 -13.8 (choice 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^4 -x^2 +9
g(x) = x^3 +3x^2 +12
We are subtracting
f(x) -g(x) =x^4 -x^2 +9 - ( x^3 +3x^2 +12)
Distribute the minus sign
x^4 -x^2 +9 - x^3 -3x^2 -12
I like to line them up vertically
x^4 -x^2 +9
- x^3 -3x^2 -12
-------------------------
x^4 -x^3 -4x^2 -3
2. a1 = -7.4
To find the common difference, take term 2 and subtract term 1
-21.2 - (-7.4)
-21.2 + 7.4
-13.8
an = an-1 -13.8
21 they have too be right next to each other and threy have too be right

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, here's a harder one
Basically, to find a vertical asymptote, we set the denominator to 0. Like this:
x^3 - 81x = 0
Then we solve for x.
x(x^2 - 81) = 0
x(x+9)(x-9) = 0
x = 0, 9, -9
There are vertical asymptotes at x = 0, x = 9, and x = -9.
